Packers finish second to Cowboys in poll of fans' favorite NFL team

The Dallas Cowboys have won one playoff game since the 1996 season, but their star has not lost its luster.

According to the most recent Harris Poll, the Cowboys remain the most popular team in the National Football League. Dallas has been first in the poll each year since 2007 (there was no poll conducted in 2012).

The Packers finished second, followed by the Broncos, Giants and Patriots.
